Win A Month of Slacker Radio Plus Service!

Though we have known for a while now that Slacker would be coming to BlackBerry smartphones, it was only earlier last month at CES 2009 when the official launch was made (read Press Release). Speaking of CES, while down on location in Vegas we we also recorded an awesome video overview of Slacker Mobile Application for BlackBerry smartphones by the company's Director of Marketing Communications (video after the jump).

Slacker Radio Plus: While Slacker Personal Radio on its own is awesome and free, upgrading to the Radio Plus Service provides a few big benefits, including unlimited skips, unlimited song requests and no audio or banner ads. The cost to upgrade is $3.99 per month (billed annually at $47.88).

Contest Time: Sweet! Slacker is offering us up 25 1-month subscriptions to Radio Plus to members of CrackBerry.com, so you can really take Radio Plus for an extended test drive. For your chance to win, you only need to do two things:

have a valid email address tied to an account setup at Slacker (ie. try the service!)

login to CrackBerry.com and make a comment to this blog post!

Contest entry closes Thursday night at midnight EST. The bad news is that Slacker is only in the USA, so that limits the the contest a bit (sorry readers from Canada and around the world!). Good luck to those who enter! Be sure to visit Slacker.com for more info and to register your account if you haven't done so already.

I am the proud owner of an IPOD 12BG IPod classic and love it. However since downloading Slacker I have had little to no use for the IPOD as the music on slacker is every bit as good as what I have placed on it. This is the best app EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you slacker.

I love Slacker! I'm always jamming while I get ready in the morning, and it puts me to sleep at night. I work for a Verizon retailer and it's an awesome selling tool to non-crackberry addicts like ourselves...

Just got it for the Storm and am SO happy! Since XM elimiated the only station I subscribed to them for in the first place, I've been looking for a reasonable replacement. I think Slacker is going to work perfectly!

love slacker. I use it everyday to and from work. I work at the Denver International Airport and have a long bus ride to and from work. Slacker and Crackberry make the ride much more bearable. Keep up the good work on all fronts and i look forward to rocking my Black Label Society station and my local favorite Devotchka. Cheers to all of you guys and your hard work bringing awesome information and products to little guys like me...ROCK ON!!

Slacker Plus is wonderful. I went ahead and made about 10 custom channels and they work beautiful. It actually plays songs that i want to hear and shows signs of getting smarter. Being able to skip as many times as I want is wonderful too but I find the more I use it the less I skip anyway haha.

This is by far the best app for my blackberry! It is a MUST for anyone living out here in Montana as we are about 5 years behind on technology. My freinds are just blown away. This is too awesome!
Win or lose I will upgrade to the PLUS version... so "pick me!"

Always carry my iPod, but thought I'd try Slacker radio. Incredible! Love the fact that I can listen to music now without having to carry my iPod and a separate set of earphones. I'm really enjoying this app!

How exciting - I used to listen to Pandora when I could listen to streaming audio at work - but no longer can, and was impatiently awaiting them to offer their service on verizon - but as of yet, they're still only offering on at&t and sprint. THANK YOU SLACKER!

i've been waiting for slacker to come out for the storm. i've been using the old version which worked pretty well, but i was really excited to see they came out with a version for the storm. just downloaded it, and this is the type of stuff i've been waiting for for the storm!

Slacker has completely changed my workday! I'll plug my BB in to a charger and just sit and listed to some tunes all day long. I love that it will run in the background so I can still use my blackberry for blackberry stuff, too. :)

This looks like one of those 'must have' services for the Storm. Just loaded yesterday, and would like to try the Plus service to determine if it's worth the extra cost. A yearly subscription committment is a little lengthy, but may be worthwhile.

I think Slacker is absolutely great!! They rarely have commercials. The music is awesome and there is plenty of stations to choose from!!!! It sounds awesome on my 9000 Bold!!!! It would be awesome to have a 1 month subscription for free!! Thanks!!!

...is a fun way to hear new music you haven't before, and it nice to use if your working out. (Yes, I take my Berry to the Gym, but I leave it at home when I go on a run...) I would love to have Slacker Plus for a bit. I would like to know what more it has, but I'm a poor college student (with a Berry, ironic?) and can't justify Plus... But I might have to if I demo it and like it...

Im a HUGE Slacker......uh...fan!!
mornings start off with some 80s/90s rock to pump me up for work, then jam through the day on some great blues rock (which I might add, is very hard to find on most net stations). Then close the night with some chillin smooth jazz and meditation music...how can it get much better then this??? Oh, I know....FREE!!
thanks Slacker!

I've had a blackberry for sometime; started with the Pearl and now moved on to the Storm. I've just really started utilizing Crackberry.com and started to download apps; second day browsing around and what do I see? Slacker...download...and it just makes me want to be on all night adding all kinds of apps to my phone! How awesome!

Would really love to win this one above all others. Have been really looking forward to this coming out for the Storm and just downloaded it. Work in Law Enforcement and this will be absolutely perfect for filling in some down time. Thanks a bunch for the entry and the news.

slacker really is AMAZING! i had pretty much given up looking for new music but the way slacker works, i'm always finding new things. it's the first music app that i've kept on my blackberry - love it!!

Just downloaded the newly released version for the Storm. So far I am loving it. I am currently on the free version but considering going for the full version. Can't wait to hear each full song. Would be great to have a trial or free period of the full version to see what I think. I am very new to crackberry and blackberry devices. The addiction has started to set in.

I just got Slacker after reading several reviews of the app and absolutely love it. It has everything as far as music I like to listen to and my co-workers are now regretting not getting a blackberry after all...keep it up and thanks for the great application!

hey guys,
Sorry to hi-Jack your thread Kevin, but I just wanted to let some of your readers know that we are having a contest for Slacker as well. So, if you really want it, come on over to our site and I'll see what I can do. We have 10 to give away, but I'm sure I can get some more!

Its finally here. I've waited like the rest and Slacker answered the best! Enjoy the selection of all the station! Works great with wonderful sound! Thank you 100x To you SLACKER RADIO, for making us blackberry abusers happy! And winning this contest wont hurt either! :)
